This marks a significant 64% decrease from the 59 cases recorded during the same period in 2024. Thirteen municipalities across Iloilo confirmed cases of the viral infection. Alimodian, Cabatuan, and San Joaquin recorded the highest number of cases, with three each. Tigbauan and Passi City reported two cases each, while one case was recorded in Barotac Viejo, Calinog, Leon, Santa Barbara, Banate, Barotac Nuevo, San Enrique, and Tubungan. HFMD is a highly contagious viral illness that primarily affects young children. Symptoms include low-grade fever, mouth sores, and rashes on the hands, feet, and buttocks. Dr. Rodney Labis, head of the PHO Health Service Delivery Division, stated in a local radio interview that most of those affected are children aged five years and younger. The disease spreads through coughing, sneezing, and contact with contaminated surfaces, such as doorknobs, chairs, tables, cellphones, and pens. Residents are urged to practice regular handwashing, disinfect frequently touched surfaces, and seek care at the nearest rural health unit (RHU) or health center if symptoms develop Citation Citation of the article Oladive, M.A. (21 January 2024) HFMD Cases in Iloilo Drop by 64%, Daily Guardian, 2-11 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
